The People's Republic of Ysfarr is a very large, orderly nation, renowned for its hatred of cheese, punitive income tax rates, and restrictive gun laws. The hard-working, cynical population of 365 million Ysfarris are kept under strict control by the oppressive government, which measures its success by the nation's GDP and refers to individual citizens as "human resources."

The enormous, moralistic, well-organized government juggles the competing demands of Law & Order, Defense, and Healthcare. It meets to discuss matters of state in the capital city of Beizur. The average income tax rate is 52.2%.

The strong Ysfarri economy, worth 15.9 trillion Zívíyós a year, is quite specialized and mostly made up of the Trout Farming industry, with significant contributions from Arms Manufacturing. Average income is 43,516 Zívíyós, and evenly distributed, with the richest citizens earning only 4.7 times as much as the poorest.

Civil servants refuse to enforce government regulations for fear of wider economic impact, the nation has an international reputation for compassion, citizens may cast their vote over the internet or phone, and Ysfarr has designated Beizur as its capital city. Crime, especially youth-related, is totally unknown, thanks to the all-pervasive police force and progressive social policies in education and welfare. Ysfarr's national animal is the Black Bear, which teeters on the brink of extinction due to widespread deforestation.

Ysfarr is ranked 5,227^th in the world and 2^nd in Kirran for Largest Trout Fishing Sector, scoring 11,286.13 on the Nemo Depletion Efficiency Index.
